Can you tell me which OTC cream you used?  Thanks!

@Sue98 I used Emerita. The company is women owned. 

Our products do not contain mineral oil, parabens, petroleum, phthalates, or SLS, are never tested on animals and are free of artificial colors and fragrances.

You will want to check the ingredients on the one you chose to try.

Pro-Gest® Cream contains 450 mg of USP Progesterone per ounce (20 mg per 1/4 teaspoon). You need to look for this.

I bought it from iHerb years ago & it was cheaper. Looks like Amazon has the best price on the 4 oz tube.

If you decide to try it don't forget to cut the tube in half when you think it's empty. You will still get at least another weeks worth out of it. I kept it in a ziplock bag. LOL!!!

i have been on hormone replacement therapy but trying to weed myself off of it? not sure why you use the cream but I can tell you if you take certain things out of your diet it may work for you. I know I have taken eggs and dairy and pork and I can tell my hormones have sky rocket?

@Sue98 there's a Wellness board in the community where you might post as well.

My gynecologist gave me an rx for it. It was a cream. After a few days of using it, I realized I was gaining weight. That was just my experience on it.
